The promise of 3D has been in one form or another with us for a very long time. It’s one of those technology that we don’t quite believe in. Or do we? We believe that the newer 3D technology is going to become ubiquitous on our TV screen, portable game console screen, laptop screen, and eventually even on our digital camera screen — whether we want it or not. Case in point: the new Toshiba dynabook Qosmio T851/D8CR is the world’s first glasses-free 3D notebook PC able to display 3D and 2D content at the same time on one screen.

In a way, street photography is all about catching strangers unawares in daily acts. Ideally, they should not know we are photographing them since they usually change their behavior when they know a camera is pointed at them.

However, Dariusz Majgier takes a totally different tact. He actually asks for their permission and snaps a photo in all of 5 short seconds, a sort of “guerilla photography.” You’d be surprised how many people will acquiese simply because they are flattered — and don’t have enough time to really think about it and say no. It’s a good idea to snap the picture, thank them with a nod of the head and a smile and quickly walk away before they change their mind.

Wandering among the streets I meet a lot of interesting people. For me, it does not matter how old they are; their status, origins, skin color or religion are of no importance to me. I want to remember them forever just as they are when I meet them. Often it is the only occasion in life to talk for a moment and hand in my card. Maybe one day I ask you as well to have a photosession.
